Chapter 348: S-Class Team

The victory in this game didn't affect both sides' qualification; it decided who could become Tokyo's number one seed.

The audience also saw from this game which side, Tiandao or Aomine, was stronger.

"The one who finally won the victory is indeed the leader of the Generation of Miracles, Tiandao Jingyan!"

"So strong, today was truly an eye-opener."

"That's right, the Generation of Miracles, each one is as strong as a monster."

"Kowai ne!"

"........"

Under the gaze of more than ten thousand spectators, Tiandao went on stage to receive the number one seed trophy.

Although Kirisaki Daiichi's basketball level was good and they had always had good competitiveness nationwide.

However, this was Kirisaki Daiichi's first championship trophy, and even if it wasn't the final championship of the National Tournament, it was of extraordinary significance.

"Let's go, let's go celebrate Kirisaki Daiichi's first championship."

After getting off the podium, Tiandao took the bad boys out to celebrate.

"What to eat?"

"Sushi? There's a very good sushi restaurant nearby."

"How about sashimi? I haven't eaten it in a long time."

Everyone was chattering, looking very excited.

They wouldn't have felt excited about winning a game before; this was a brand-new experience Tiandao brought them.

They had many opinions, speaking out their favorite foods one after another.

But the person who made the final decision was still Tiandao, who said, "Let's go eat barbecue."

Hara Kazuya and the others changed their expressions when they heard this, including Hanamiya Makoto.

Every time they finished eating these high-calorie things, Tiandao would torture them until they weren't human the next day.

"No way........"

The next day.

All regional preliminary tournaments in the country had ended.

The Youth Sports Newspaper, as usual, did a tour of all participating teams.

Combining their game data and dominance on the court, they "ranked them by seniority."

The first to bear the brunt were the teams where the Generation of Miracles were.

Tokyo area's Kirisaki Daiichi and Touou.

Kanagawa Prefecture's Kaijo High School.

Akita Prefecture's Yosen High School.

Kyoto's Rakuzan High School.

These 5 teams were ranked in the strongest tier by the Youth Sports Newspaper, all labeled as S-class teams.

This was rare.

Because in previous years, there were very few teams that could receive an S-class evaluation.

What does S-class represent?

Referencing Sannoh in SD, they were the only S-class team and the nationally recognized favorite to win the championship.

The only team that could be rated as S-class last year was Rakuzan.

They possessed three enviable Uncrowned Kings.

Rakuzan also won the National Tournament championship without suspense.

In other words, S-class represented the championship ranks; under normal circumstances, only one to two would appear in a year, and there had never been a case of more than 3 S-class teams in history.

But this year, the pattern had changed significantly.

There were a total of 5 teams that reached the S-class level; if you counted Shutoku, which was accidentally eliminated, that would be 6.

Before the games started this year, people predicted that the team with the Generation of Miracles would eventually produce a champion.

Now it seems that was indeed correct.

Except for the fierce battle between Kirisaki Daiichi and Touou in the Tokyo area, the teams with the Generation of Miracles in other regions didn't face any challenges worth mentioning in their preliminary tournaments.

So, barring any accidents, the one who could win the National Tournament championship this year would be one of these teams.
